Banyan bonsai is very beautiful, with lush leaves all the year round and unique shapes, especially aerial roots. It can be said that with these varied roots, the banyan tree is even more charming.

Having said that, some friends will definitely ask, what can be done to make the banyan tree grow more air roots and increase its aesthetic feeling? Briefly talk about this problem and share it with everyone!

We know that small banyan trees mainly live in mild and rainy areas in the south. Under this environmental condition, the small banyan tree grows faster and its crown grows thicker. In order to support huge trees and grow more aerial roots, it can play a supporting role first. If it is a big tree, there are even thousands of air roots, forming a unique spectacle. Moreover, when there is a lot of precipitation, the main roots are soaked and can't meet the breathing needs. At this time, in order to survive, it will grow many air roots to assist the main roots to breathe and meet the air demand of banyan trees.

To sum up, the aerial rooting of Ficus microcarpa can not only support the plant, but also adapt to the survival under high humidity conditions. Therefore, if aerial roots want to grow more and thicker lateral roots, they must meet the following conditions: first, they must see enough light to grow strong; Moreover, the air humidity is relatively high, and with air humidity, aerial roots can grow rapidly and become more developed.

The conditions for the growth of aerial roots have been mentioned above, so the first way to cultivate larger and more developed aerial roots is to let banyan trees see more mild sunshine and thrive. Under this premise, it is possible to germinate aerial roots. It is not enough to have these, but also to create conditions for aerial roots to sprout. The specific method can be: in spring, the small banyan tree is soaked in water and watered with a flowerpot. The soaking method is more thorough, then cover the banyan tree with a big plastic bag and keep it warm and moist in the sun. In this mild and humid environment, small banyan trees will soon grow a lot of aerial roots. This method is simple to operate and has low technical requirements.

Of course, you can also stimulate rooting by breaking branches. You can angrily choose the side branch that you want to take root, then cut a knife near the trunk of this side branch, block the wound with mud to prevent the juice from flowing out, and then gently twist the branch, preferably as if it were broken, not as if it were broken. If so, soon after the operation, many air roots will grow at the fracture of the small banyan tree.

Banyan bonsai is still very beautiful and strange. It would be even more beautiful if aerial roots could be made properly. You can try it in your spare time to make your little banyan bonsai more magnificent.
